What
kind of returns can one expect?
Our primary objective is risk management with preservation of capital and prevention of any significant permanent capital loss with a view to generate good returns over a period of time. Our entire process of selection is designed to find investment ideas with a sufficient margin of safety, so that part proceeds can fetch good returns. Although this approach can be termed as conservative.
We expect much higher return than fixed deposit interest rates over a time frame of two to three years. However , our endeavour is to perform better than this. At the same time, one cannot guarantee of positive returns all the time and over a short period of time.

How
are you different from a Mutual Fund?
Palsmith PMS offers you a unique combination of equity expertise and personalized service. Your portfolio will be constructed to meet your investment goals at a given level of risk.
Further, we have a stated objective to keep the churn very low. It is a little known fact that high turnover takes away a major part of investment returns. You can monitor the portfolio turnover.
These aspects would not be available to you in a mutual fund.
Importantly, our fee is significantly lower than the basic management fee levied by a mutual fund (pre- performance management fee).
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Why
should I pay a performance fee?
The base asset management fee being charged is much lower than that charged by others, and that is to cover our running costs. We have consciously kept our fee more performance linked, as we strongly believe that it will align the interests of the firm and the client.
You should not be burdened when the portfolio performance is not positive.
